[ExI] AI and Innovation

[Ben Zaiboc]

There seem to be a number of people here who often make use of AI 
systems, I was wondering if anyone has noticed any AI coming up with 
novel ideas? Can they innovate at all, as opposed to sifting through 
large amounts of already known information, creating summaries, doing 
calculations, etc.?

What I'm really asking is, if given a problem, can they come up with a 
solution that nobody has thought of before?
